Rate this book
They come to me for the adventure of a lifetime…and I always deliver.

Ten years ago my alphas rejected me in a public display that sealed my fate. I found a whole new life, a whole new me. Now, I’m an omega leading groups of people on wildlife adventures and living my best life.

Until they swarm back into my world, with their smarmy smiles and their hot, hot bodies, trying to weasel their way back into my good books. Rory, Vale, Dakota and Cyn who think power and money are everything. Well, we aren’t in the concrete jungle now, we’re in my world.

Something’s not right. In fact, something’s very wrong. Accidents keep happening and before long I’m left staring at my scent matches I dumped in the past, wondering who they are and what they are really doing here.

They might have a dangerous secret, one they might kill to protect, but the rules are different in the wild.

I am so grateful to be able to read Tea Ravine's ARCs. I always enjoy her work and quickly get sucked into each story she writes. Her writing is easy to read, her plots are interesting, and the grovel/rejection aspect always packs a punch. I was actually tearing up at the beginning of the book when we got to her rejection and depression episode.

Some of what I'm going to say below may have a few key spoilers for the book. I will be as vague as possible to avoid ruining it for anyone.
One important detail to note is that the MMCs didn't give a reason as to why they rejected the fmc at the beginning of the book, even with the rejection at the start. We find out why towards the midway to 3/4 mark. The guys' reason was, quote, "they would've broken her."
The guys are serial deleters in their free time, and no one knows that about them, despite them being super famous and always in the public eye with paparazzi following them. The main characters meet when the FMC is 18, and the guys are a few years older, so there's a small age gap. She is desperate for her scent-matched mates because, in her eyes, no one will compare, and she wants what her parents have. So it comes off as a little naive/innocent, but not terribly so.
After getting to the reason for the rejection, my first instinct was no, they wouldn't have broken her. I had a good sense of her charcter and it didn't match the rest of her or her family's vibe, and this is why: her family was surrounded by interesting characters with personality. Her character developed into a badass, boss b*tch, that had nothing to do with her mates, it was ALL her. Knowing she had this person inside her didn't make sense for the rejection reason.

Given the MMCs' manic, obsessive, stalkerish behavior, it would've made sense if they could've had a similar occurrence with the FMC. If they had a different reason as to why they rejected the fmc-like maybe they had already been following her around, but had to reject due to the FBI or some serial unaliver being on their tail.

Aside from the fact that I think they rejected her for no reason, it was an addicting story. The fmc likes the outdoors and spends most of her time in the wilderness, which I thought was cool for an omega. She is very independent and in charge, who puts alphas and betas in their place.

Did the alpha grovel? Ehhh, they did in a way. It was more that they had proved themselves and showed they cared for the fmc despite her reluctantcy on carrying on a friendship or anything more with them. This is a second-chance romance, so the guys who reject her are the guys she ends up with. This is also a why choose situation, where the guys are all in a relationship as well.

I appreciated the depression/mental health rep in this book. Some of it was tough to read, but boy did it feel real!

4/5 Stars 2.5/5 Spice (Slow burn build up w/ the fmc, more spice between the MM's in the beginning)

Tea has once again given us a new twist on omegaverse and, oh boy, is it a fun time. Bonnie has quickly become one of my favorite heroines with her snarky wit and violent reflexes. We watch her shatter in the midst of a publicly devastating rejection and unrelenting harassment by the media. She learns to piece herself back together becoming a formidable force of nature.

Ten years pass and Bonnie finds herself once more thrust into contact with the men who broke her heart. She is ill prepared but resolute in spending the next three weeks guiding them and many others through the rugged terrain of the uninhabited wilds.

Unbeknown to Bonnie, her rejected pack of alphas are a prolific set of serial unalivers and their presence is far more nefarious than she realizes. Every skill she’s mastered is out to the test as they navigate the wilderness and its unexpected dangers.

I ate this story up! It is stabby, incredibly nostalgic, and explosively steamy. If you love heroines who learn to save themselves, unforgivingly dangerous alphas, and the untamed beauty of nature in its purest, I urge you to grab this story when it drops on March 7th. It is lush, wild, and evocative with the perfect amount of humor.

While this is not a terribly dark book, there are some possibly triggering scenarios that can be found under the content warnings on Tea’s website.

Tea Ravine has such a way of drawing you into her books! I started this book and didn't even realize how much the day passed when I finally took a break. It's just so captivating.

Bonnie is such a strong character. She could have let what happened to her pull her under, but instead, she took that and found strength in the chaos and pain.

As for Vale, Cyn, Dakota, and Rory.. I can understand why they did what they did when Bonnie was younger.. but they also definitely deserved what Bonnie put them through. These are strong men who think they can take anything they want, and that's where Bonnie comes in. The guys balance each other out so wonderfully that adding Bonnie into the mix just adds to all that they are as a pack!

As with many great books, our main characters aren't the only ones who deserve credit. The background characters are simply amazing! Meg and Pix are the type of friends you don't hide anything from, and you know they will have your back. Honestly, Bonnie's whole family is terrific how they will ride or un alive for each other!

If you want a book that is all emotions, raw, unfiltered, heart twisting shock, and lots of banter….then look no further! Tea Ravine has absolutely delivered with this book!! It's one you seriously aren't going to want to put down.

Tea Ravine is on my one-click list when it comes to books! They never disappoint and I’ve been looking forward to reading Meet Your Knotty Maker: RIP Alpha!

I was excited to get a pack of serial-killer alphas and a rejected omega and this book delivered. Tea Ravine gives us another absolute gut-punch rejection story that slowly transforms into something so much more. Bonnie finds her strength, her identity, and her worth while the pack that cast her aside is forced to witness (and rely on her) who she really is after 10 years.

I also loved Bonnie’s family (and Meg, Desi, and Pix) They didn’t just support her during her darkest moments—they showed up and gave the Pack Prince challenges they absolutely did not see coming. Those scenes were some of my favorites.

At the start, I truly hated the Pack Prince for what they did to Bonnie. But as the story unfolded, I could see how her rejection ultimately shaped her into someone who could survive,and thrive in their world.

This book definitely had some twists I didn’t see coming and I want more!

Now I just need more Meg, Desi, and Pix… and honestly, I would not complain about a backstory on Bonnie’s parents either.

Woooooow this is the switch of the ov world, aweet innocent Omega Bonnie shelf her pack at 18 and fell in love with what she thought would be her final ending. Pure as she could be her feelings and sweet disposition was on dually for her pack at a red carpet where pack Prince that consisted of Vale, Rory, Cyn, and Dakota would see her and this life she saw would begin.

To bad that's not what happened, Bonnie. Rejected, tormented with the exploits of her pack with other omegas and Betas by the news and reporters, and hounded by those who lied about her family and her for money could do nothing but try and rebuild once her family took her far away to save her, so she could save herself.

This book. Can i say .. mind blown 🤯
Bonnie .. once so cute became a bad ass
Pack Prince.. well if you think in gate they had the right of it, but you still have to feel bad about how it went but this author really knows how to make these characters pull you in and make you need to know what jasper's next.

I was an ARC reader for this book and I regret nothing

Bonnie is a woman who found herself after a stinging rejection, but what happens when the pack that rejected her comes back around?

This was a great time! This is a story of rejection and second chances. Sometimes our expectations are not reality but we put so much thought and planning into what we expect out of people that we get hurt. People aren’t required to want you the way you want them, but what you do after is what matters. Rejection stings! It sucks but learning how to live and grow past rejection is a theme that is prevalent with Bonnie in this story. She’s strong and doesn’t just fall, but makes the pack prove themselves. The pack, oh how I love them, they stood firm in their reasoning but understood that they had to work hard to get Bonnie. Family and friends are the people who keep our heads above water and I love how these aspects are shown. From the characters, pacing, plot ,and surprises along the way, this was a really great story. Meg was such a fun character to read, and Pix was amazing!

I ate this book up. It’s pretty much a guarantee that any Tea book is going to be in-putdownable!
This was the perfect blend of rejected mates, dark romance, awesome side characters, humour, heats, knots and psychopaths. The twist about half way through I did not see coming.

Huge shout out to Tea for writing an omegaverse rejected mates where the heroine is badass, so refreshing to read a MFC that can hold her own and takes no prisoners!

I received an arc of this book and I’m leaving this review voluntarily.

This book was incredible! I would love this 10 stars if it let me! I absolutely adore the characters and the plot had me on the edge of my seat. I was absolutely giddy while reading it which probably says a lot given what this book is about. but it you are looking for psychotic characters, lovable side characters, and a rejected scent match that is unintentionally (mostly) thwarting her alphas, this book is for you!!

This is such a different type of omegaverse book compared to what is popular. I love how the majority of the story takes place in the wilderness instead of in an actual town. Gives more opportunities for things to happen to the characters! I also really like how the guys had to try and convince her continuously that they wanted her but she held firm, even when she wanted to give in.

Such a good book!

Thank you, may I have another? Rejected omega who decides that she deserves better and turns herself into an incredible little monster. Absolutely! Bonnie is like, life goals. She's fierce and spicy and a master chess player thinking 5 steps a head. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall when all the pieces clicked together for those boys. The banter between Bonnie and her parents and friends was gold. I sincerely hope we see more of them in the future.

Grab a fan! You’re going to need it! The spice is spicy! The plot is plotting! This is so good! I couldn’t stop turning the page! Let’s just say there is also a shock factor and I was shocked and I was eating it all up. FMC is knowledgable and fierce. The alphas are morally gray and crazy and i love it! The yearning and angst is next level. If you’re into omegaverse then run to get this one! Chefs kiss!!

Tea, this is by far my top, all time favorite you have written. The pot and story line. . . Phenomenal. The real world experience that you added into it, perfect.
Oh, we can't forget about our lovely pack and Bonnie's family.
I loved and enjoyed everything about it.
I really loved Rory and Cyn.
I can't wait to see what you right next.

I laughed so much reading this book.
At first, nothing is what it seems, and that's what makes it so incredibly good!

Yes, it's a dark omegaverse, but it doesn't feel that way while reading.
So many fun and crazy characters, it's hard to pick a favorite!

I hope there's a sequel with different characters, but where we meet these main characters again.
